The Dude Posted December 3, 2014 Author Share Posted December 3, 2014 400ci of smog death motor 400m Clevo! C6 of utter dependability, and stoic 9 inch. Geared for comfort rather than speed, but getting better as I rip off various gadgets and Gizmo's developed to suck horsepowers and Gasoline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

browndog Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Is this the amazing 400ci Cleveland with about 170hp? Like, how could they possibly get such a small amount of hp from such a BIG engine? Is it a diesel or something? And Starsky and Hutch had a 2 door from memory! But interesting anyway, please continue 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyteler Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Because emissions. 4 instead of 2 door, because drunk. Neat. ..now where is the "Tell me more" button? Also, are you coming to nationals bud? I'm keen for yarns about your state side purchasing and such. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yetchh Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Looking at the front of a torino makes me wonder if that was the inspiration for the mercedes front 929/s3 rx4.. also did a semi drunk eBay and ended up with a pos landau.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted December 4, 2014 Author Share Posted December 4, 2014 I'm sure all of us have done a drunken bit of e-baying, how come I'm the only one to end up with three American cars in America? Please tell me this is normal! yes its the amazing 180hp Clevo, turns fuel into noise, and no power, and short distances, but the air is like totally clean I won't be at nats this year as it coincides with me turning 40 and I will be globetrotting home to Wales to see my old mates and my family, and dropping in on my super secret police interceptor project in Windslow AZ, on the way (more about this sometime later!) its a shame because I'd love to shoot the Breeze in person with some of you i haven't met yet. Will make up for it next year or sooner! yetchh I admire your Landau greatly (The best Coupe!), I bow to your dedication sir. I have the Tea Bag Fairlane to introduce to you shortly and together we shall laugh in the face of rust, and in my case total insanity. Story time will continue tomorrow, thanks guys 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted January 23, 2015 Author Share Posted January 23, 2015 Err I might just have to write this Indemmnity in here before we continue. 1. you should be reading this build as a story, and nothing more. 2. I don't condone or encourage any others to participate in any of the mentioned activities . (apart from buying cars in random countries because that is awesome) 3. Characters Portrayed in said story could be a work of complete fiction Ok all ready? then read on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Value Buddy Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Cool man, life is busy! I did a camping road trip through Wales a couple of years ago (my brother lives in London) and thoroughly enjoyed it.
